• A satellite will not start - how to back up data from the HARD drive?

  Hello
  My laptop won't turn. How can I take backup of internal hard drive?

  Please read my writing as soon as POSSIBLE

  If you n t have access to your saved data remove the laptop HARD drive, connect it to the other PC as external device and you should have access to all stored data if the HARD drive is not defective.

  What you need is USB 2.0 IDE 2.5 HD enclosure disk hard drive / external case/Box.

• Could not initialize and I need to recover the data on the hard drive.

  Original title: computer MOM will not start and I need to recover the data on the hard drive.

  It's an old computer and I do not know what version of Windows it was running.  I guess I need a bootdisk of exploitation, but where can I download that?  Or would it be easier to pull and make a secondary drive in my computer that I just replaced?  It works under Windows XP.

  Hello

  If the old system does not start could be the hard drive. Put the hard drive in another computer as a 2nd drive and then access the files. If you use a computer XP, Vista or Windows 7, you should be able to access the files, unless the drive has failed.

  You can save your files by putting the drive in another computer as a 2nd drive (better) or a USB external drive case and then save up to removable media such as CD, DVD or other USB drives. Of course a real store of the computer or the manufacturer of your system can help to recover the files.

  Or you can use a boot Ubuntu CD to back up data. (This will not work if the hard disk is defective or other issues preventing the system from booting from the CD/DVD drive.)

• Access the data on the hard drive

  My hard drive on my laptop failed.  I replaced and reinstalled windows vista, but I could not access any data on the old hard drive.  I was able to install it as a backup of my desktop computer hard drive and I can see the directory structure, however, whenever I try to access the data in My Documents, I get an error G:\users\moe\documents\my is music is not accessible access is denied.  Any ideas how I can access this information, assuming that it is not a physical problem with the hard drive.  I have the password of windows I used to access the computer, but I don't know how to use it since this drive is not the one I am running windows from.  The computer that I use to access the data on the hard drive is on windows XP, if that makes a difference.

  The computer tries to access the old hard drive and the old hard drive are XP.  It is a forum for Vista.  All the procedures I have on this issue are only for Vista.  You should repost your question in the right place.

  Please repost your question in the Forums XP: http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/category/windowsxp where XP experts will be happy to help you to gain access.  I don't know it's just a simple issue of permissions and/or property which can be easily solved with the correct procedures.

  I hope this helps.  If you later need help transfer of data to the Vista machine, then come back here and we will help you.

  Good luck!

• Need to retrieve the BONES but do not have the habit of losing data on the HARD drive

  Dear all!

  For long time now, I tried to disable a Trojan horse or a worm, on my Windows XP Home (Home!) i.e. get rid of the cftmon_.exe, when I decided to follow the instructions from Symantec and pieces manually deleted from the register, I guess she was part USERINIT (turn off the system before restore and put on after the deletion).

  It can be as well as I did not right, something after the fact that I have would be to end the session at the time the logon process has started. This is relatively known issue here, with different options.

  -J' need to keep the data on two HARD drives.
  -I have no other partitions.
  -I don't know what I've got on one of them, which I could use to free space Recovery Expert mode.

  a. the fact that I want to take the option with Toshiba, which is Expert mode (http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=2513&tstart=125) as a last recovery, DVDs on

  b. I have trouble with the installation of the Recovery Console (with Windows XP (Professional!) original CD, 'R' for 'fix), but I would get the message "Setup has not found hard disk units installed in your computer"...
  I understand that I would need to install the driver RAID (http://forums.computers.toshiba-europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=20093&messageID=73758) but I'm afraid that this may delete the data on the disc.

  My questions are the following:

  1 install the RAID driver (downloaded from the Toshiba off site web http://support.toshiba-tro.de/tools/updates/raid-drv/raid-drv-qog20-xp-1380.zip and installed on the floppy drive I guess) so we hope to install the Recovery Console, and do the rest of the work, make data disappear my 2 (remove) HARD drives?

  2. If I use Toshiba Recovery DVD, Expert mode that is finally what is the size of partition should be recorded for the mirror on the half vacuum 1.HDD?, should I partition 2 HDD, after it backup and count data will be lost? Choose any setings special during the process, apart from those mentioned in the link above? What should I do after wards? The registry damaged when you logged in and how can I build? I will be able to use personal and archive data from Microsoft Outlook?

  3. is there a alternative with UBCD4Win and UBCD? What is the best? What is the procedure of after the start of the CD after reboot? How to copy/repair the userinit files?

  I'm sorry for the load of information, but I am pretty stuck. All the necessary data for my normal life are buried here!

  A big thank you JohnnyS, tw, Quad, Eldorado and many others!

  See you soon!

  Hi friend

  I would like to respond on comments like yours, it s a good exercise for my work and my s really cool to have a few topics which will help all the people here.

  JohnnyS is a friend of mine who works with me at our office and we talked a bit about your problem.
  If his opinion is to use the UBCD4Win and work with this option.

  The advice from him were:

  Take a USB - HDD enclosure and put a disk in it and start with UBCD4Win. Copy any important data in a folder on the external HARD drive, then remove the uneeded data on this subject. Only important data!
  Make a backup of your data on the external hard drive for two HDD´s I hope that you have enough free space.

  Format the drive in your machine and get it back. Install the system as usual on your first HARD drive.
  Then put the data anywhere.

  So I don't know if I have it just ask, a little more explanation would be useful. I think that this is a long thread. ;)

• Satellite L300-110 - how to recover without losing any data on the HARD drive?

  Hi all
  I have a Toshiba Satellite L300-110

  The question is how can I recover my laptop with the recovery DVD without losing all the data located in the hard drive?

  I confirm the information published by Luke.
  The HARD drive and all other partitions should be formatted using the recovery disk.
  Why? The recovery disc sets the laptop to factory settings and to this end, the HARD drive must be formatted first.

  That is why it s is strongly recommended to back up the data if you want to use the recovery disk.

• The computer hangs when copying the data on the hard drive

  * Problem *:

  My computer freezes whenever I have transfer large amounts_ of the data on the disc from my computer. * It doesn't have this problem with my C drive *.

  First detected this problem while I was transferring some data in LAN. This problem occurs even when I copy data to my C drive to the D drive.

  Action taken:

  -Performed a full scan of my computer, found some viruses, but the problem persists
  -Do you have a check disk via Windows, as well as the TuneUp utility, no problem.

  Data sheet:
  OS: Windows 7 Professional 32-bit
  Processor: Intel Core 2 Duo t7200 @ 2.00GHz
  RAM: 1 GB DDR2 - SDRAM
  Hard drive: TOSHIBA MK1234GSX ATA Device(120GB)
  No partitions: 2

  Hello

  It of difficult to say what might be wrong here but if the question appears only using the second partition, then I recommend to check the State of the HARD drive.
  I use a very good freeware tool called Drive Fitness Test.
  Use google to download this software.

  It creates a boot disk that allows you to test the drive HARD and of course the two partitions.
  If the error would be detected, then it means that the HARD drive failure could be the reason for this

• Satellite P200-1EE Possible to recover data on the HARD drive by placing it in an envelope?

  P200-1EE does not start after 2 weeks off is the case during a fan installation. Is it possible to remove the hard drive, put it in an enclosure and retrieve the data it contains on another PC? Or can anyone recommend how to recover data from the comfort of my own home?

  Thanks for your help

  I would say that your installation of fan caused this problem in the first place. I would check your installation for loose connectors, cards not seated properly, no fan or heatsinks screws tight etc..

  Everything you did everything by installing the new fan plugged the laptop. The hard disk, in my opinion, is perfectly fine. There is nothing wrong with it.

  Put the suspect hard drive in an enclosed and try to access the data on another PC. You will encounter problems with administrator access to certain folders so you will need to find a way to crack in these areas.

  If you had problems in the first place you probably should have this return to the place of purchase for them to watch.

  I hope that for your sake you have not turned into a frisbee.

  Good luck.

• I want to recover the data on the hard drive using a laptop as a hard drive.

  Original title: Using a laptop as a hard drive...

  On a MAC, I can plug my laptop into my office with a firewire port to access the hard drive on the laptop without the OS being ran on the laptop.  Windows Vista has such a thing?  If so, how do you go?  The hard drive on my Windows laptop fails and we want to try and recover the data, by hooking it to a desktop as shown above with the MACs.

  Thank you in advance!

  Hello

  "There is no way to access the hard drive when there is no operating system and if the hard drive is connected terribly."

  However, you can remove the hard drive from the laptop and connect it to the office with a case of hard disk that comes with the USB cable.

• Question about deleting data from the HARD drive

  Hello

  The C drive on my computer satellite phone is almost full, 1.21 Gb free of 55.7 and drive E has 10.9 GB 36 GB free. How can I solve this problem. I am not concerned by what is deleted. It can go if you have to.

  Slowing down the laptop down to something serious.

  Any help would be great.

  Hello

  It seems that drive E has little more free space
  So, you can move some files like photos, movies, files pm3 or any that you have stored on the partition, the partition E.

  You can also reduce the E partition and can add free space on the C partition.
  To do this, you must use a 3rd party software
  I recommend using a freeware tool called * Gparted.*

  How to get it? Google is your friend ;)

• Qosmio F30 - installation of Windows XP is not recongize the HARD drive

  Hi all, can you help me please?

  I had a virus on a download tried to get rid, but all not so tried to format the HARD drive and reload XP pro by putting in the disc and the loading, but find no hard drive after many attempts.

  So I removed the HARD drive and formatted on another pc handed over and tried again still no luck. So loaded XP Professional SP 1,2,3 to the HARD disk via the second pc normally looks good as that pc works ok in F30 it starts up windows black screen then goes to blue screen then reboots and starts again.

  I think something got into the BIOS I downloaded it from the support site, but it won't work. Nothing happens. I'm doing something wrong?
  It looks like you can only update the bios under Windows. I can't because I can't get in there, it says use F12 all I can use is F1

• erasure of data from the hard drive?

  Hey Microsoft, I have a problem

  I had two boot(win_xp_pro_and_win_7_ult).they are the two 32 bit.

  so I tried exchanging win xp with win vista ult 32 bit (download, NOT on the cd).

  I started to install and after 4 5 steps made my pc restarted and it stuck at "Please wait windows is to configure your computer" or something similar to this for 30-40 minutes.

  I rebooted it and started on win 7 I started by now. I tried to start the whole process of win 7, hoping that it will not get stuck, but he said I need space on my hard drive I got previously from win xp. So I opened up Explorer and I have seen that there are a few new files (from win vista).

  I tried once more (started on vista) and my pc has been blocked for the same post in front. So I decided to free up space and tried to format the hard drive, but I received a message(on_win_7):Windows was unable to complete the format. I tried to delete all the files, but I've done worse thereby; I get error file missing at the start of vista. I have the installation files on my win 7 and I want to delete everything on my hard drive.

  Please help and thanks in advance!

F11 entered to access advanced hp Recovery Manager options tempted towards the top of the entire disk, all files show while listing to back up, attached to my external hard drive current over the back with success.  Plugged external on another laptop, new files since the previous backup are no where.  Should I buy a new external hard drive and repeat the backup via Recovery Manager Advanced Options or should I remove the internal hard disk and insert it into a case and apply in usb on another laptop to view the files.  I know when my computer crashed, I had too many windows/tabs open and too much process and tried to interrupt a process and I confused his little brain and now he has Alzheimer's disease.  I am freaked because I'll lose everything 2012 including some very important documents and about 50 000 pictures HD (yes I learned my lesson backup!) I am in crisis mode because I recently became sick and my photos and documents is vital for my next year of chemotherapy and radiation. Please advice are extremely appreciated. Thank you

  This backup after pressing F11 is a HP backup option, not a Microsoft option.

  I suggest that you contact HP or ask their Support Forums.

  It's the normal advice I'd give to record data; but we have no idea of the State of your hard drive.

  Saving your files:

  You can remove the hard drive and put it in a hard drive USB enclosure > plug it into another computer > and try to read and copy your data in this way.

  Or, you can download Knoppix > make a bootdisk to > start your system with it (IF your material is all work) > and copy your data from the hard drive like that.

• How to clear the HARD drive for confidential data before attaching to the third party?

  My HARD drive needs to be fixed and would like to know how to erase confidential data in the HARD drive before giving it to third parties.

  Reformatted would it be sufficient?

  Does anyone have any suggestions?

  Thanks in advance for your suggestions

  The best way in my opinion is using AutoNuke in Dban. Make sure you have the desired data off the drive hard until you execute Dban. Once you run it, it's over.

• XP is not start properly, important data files on the hard drive, location unknown such as e-mail addresses, individual emails and favorite links on Internet Explorer. The system is damaged irreparably, what is the solution?

  I need ideas to solve this problem.

  You can retrieve the data without being able to get into Windows. The methods described require a certain level of computer skills. You know yourself best, and if a better course of action would be to take the machine to a local professional with a good reputation instead. If you choose to do, do not use a type of BigComputerStore/GeekSquad of the place.

  1 remove the drive and put it in a box of USB drive or use a USB adapter. Attach it to a computer that is running a working XP/Vista/Windows7 installation. Use the work of Windows Explorer to copy the data to the hard drive of the system to the rescue and burn data on cd or dvd, or copy it to an external hard drive. I prefer not to do it if I know the drive is infected because he has a chance to infect your host system. In these cases, I use #2 below.

  2. you can start the computer target with a Bart PE (XP only) or Linux Livecd such as Knoppix or Ubuntu and retrieve the data in this way. This has the additional advantage to tell you if the problems you are experiencing are hardware or software related because if the computer behaves perfectly in Linux, you know that Windows (software) is the culprit. Conversely, if the computer behaves badly under Linux, you will know that there is a hardware problem. This is general information on the use of Knoppix for the recovery of data when you do not have Windows:

  You will need a computer with two cd records, one of which is an engraver of CD/DVD OR a USB thumb drive with enough capacity to contain your data OR an external USB hard drive. Download Knoppix .iso image file and create your bootable CD *. If you do this in a previous (XP or Vista) operating system, you will need the third burning like Nero, Roxio or free ImgBurn software (Windows 7 can burn .isos natively). Burn as an image, not in the form of data. Then boot with the CD that you created, and Knoppix will be able to see the files in Windows. If you use the USB key or an external hard disk, right-click on its icon (on the desktop) to get its properties and uncheck "read only". Then click on it to open it. Note that the mouse action by default in the window manager used by Knoppix (KDE) is a simple click to open instead of double-click traditional MS Windows. If you want to burn CD/DVDs, use the K3b program.

  * If your computer has only an optical drive and you want to use this drive to burn data or need to test drive, you can create a USB bootable Linux instead of a bootable CD. This site will show you how to do it- http://www.pendrivelinux.com
